Quorum Announces Expansion of BDC

BDC expansion to second location utilizing Quorum’s existing leased space in St. John’s, NL to allow for accelerated growth and improved customer satisfaction

ST. JOHN’S, Newfoundland and Labrador, Sept. 24, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Quorum Information Technologies Inc. (TSX Venture: QIS) (“Quorum” or the “Corporation”), announced today the expansion of DealerMine’s Business Development Centre (“BDC” or call centre) operations from Saint John, NB, to a second location utilizing Quorum’s existing leased space in St. John’s, NL.

DealerMine’s BDC services are offered to dealerships in Canada and the United States to help drive business into their service departments. Some of the largest automotive dealer groups rely on DealerMine’s BDC including AutoCanada, who operate 50 franchised dealerships in Canada.

“The increasingly competitive nature of the Saint John, NB call centre environment and the federal government’s CERB program have made it difficult to recruit the number of staff required to meet our dealership’s increasing demands for BDC services,” said Maury Marks, President & CEO. “We are firmly committed to our BDC in Saint John, NB, but strategically we needed to expand to a second location to allow us to attract additional BDC staff. In St. John’s, NL, Quorum has existing leased space available as well as HR and Network staff. These combined factors made St. John’s a natural choice for a second BDC office.”
